The Egg, Dairy and Nut Free Cookbook



My daughter, who is now four, has had egg, nut and dairy allergies since birth. Like the authors son, she was also allergic to my breast milk. I thought I knew it all when it came to providing meals/baking for her, but when I saw this book for sale I thought I'd buy it for interest and in a strange way to support the author who's been through what we have been (are are going) through. Well, I am really impressed and am very grateful to the author for writing it. I have tried 2 recipes which came out fabulously (blueberry muffins and banana muffins) and have the carrot cake baking in the oven while I type!! It look and smells like a success already! Other recipes I've tried for banana muffins have turned out a stodgy gooey lump, but the authors recipe for these were really lovely. Light, distinct pieces of banana and with a really pleasing golden crust which can be quite hard to achieve without eggs or dairy! I'm very happy and would easily serve these up to non-allergic visitors without needing to explain why they aren't quite up to scratch compared to a 'normal' muffin! The recipes use simple, storecupboard ingredients, and apart from a few recipes which use products not available in New Zealand (for eg milk-free whipped topping) I shall be working my way thru this book! A big thank to the author for this one!!

A good first book - foodie - singapore
I have children who have egg, nut and dairy alllergies so I was really excited to find this book. I have been cooking special meals for them since they were little so the recipes here are not too exciting to me. However, for parents who are just starting to cook special meals for their children, this would be a very good first book. What I like about it is that the author does not use artificial egg replacers in her desserts and she does have a large number of desserts/cookies/candy recipes. There is an interesting recipe that uses 7-UP! It is called "Milk Free Biscuits". Now that I would like to try.

A must-have if you've got more than 1 kid and not all have allergies! - Tanya Dennis -
Is there anything worse than having your daughter who LOVES French toast sit next to your son who is allergic to milk and eggs? Enter this book to the rescue.

With a big, clean format, this book is heavy on the areas where these allergies cause problems. She's got a ton of great-tasting cookie, cake, and bread recipes. And, yes, several wonderful look-alike, taste-almost-alike recipes like egg, nut and dairy-free French toast! (My husband actually likes her version of French toast better than the original.) Her cake and frosting recipes have saved my son's birthday parties. Even school moms whose kids have no allergies have asked me for some of these great recipes. I have thoroughly enjoyed EVERYTHING we've tried from this book.

I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5, however, because of the high price and lack of photographs. For (and after seeing the cover) I expected pictures. If you're not going to give me pictures, I would like more recipes for the money.

That said, even at this price, I GLADLY RECOMMEND this book.
